Why list_pos_shifts needs a policy

This tool retrieves and displays POS shift records with financial summary information (cash balances) but does not modify, execute operations, or commit financial transactions. It is a straightforward query operation with no side effects. While it accesses financial-adjacent data, the tool itself performs no financial operations—it merely reports existing cash drawer session details.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_pos_shifts' and description verb 'List' indicate data retrieval. Returns 'paginated results via since_id cursor' with no mention of modification, deletion, or execution.

How to control list_pos_shifts

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sapo, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_pos_shifts:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_pos_shifts": {}
  }
}

list_pos_shifts is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Sapo — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
